An Embodied Gratitude Workshop for Parents + Kids
Embodied Gratitude
A Somatic Experience for Parents + Children
Cultivating Presence, Connection & Appreciation from the Inside Out
What if gratitude isn't simply something we teach our children to say—but something we can help them experience, embody, and feel?
In the busyness of everyday life, it's easy to become focused on what's next, what's missing, or what needs our attention. But when we slow down, reconnect with our bodies, and become present, we create space to notice the beauty, connection, and goodness already surrounding us.
Join Dr. Rachael and Dr. Shirley for a 60-minute experiential workshop designed to help parents and children explore gratitude through the body, nervous system, movement, mindfulness, and meaningful connection.
While parents and children participate in separate age-appropriate experiences, both will explore the same foundational message:
Gratitude isn't just something we think or say. It's something we can notice, feel, and practice.
Parents will explore the relationship between gratitude, nervous system awareness, and emotional well-being. Through somatic practices, mindful reflection, and embodied experiences, parents will discover ways to cultivate greater presence, appreciation, and connection in everyday family life.
Children will explore gratitude through playful movement, sensory experiences, creative expression, mindfulness, and simple body-based practices that invite them to recognize what feels good, notice moments of connection, and experience appreciation in their own unique ways.
We'll come back together as families for a meaningful experience of connection, shared gratitude, and simple practices to carry into everyday life.
This isn't about forcing positivity, ignoring difficult emotions, or teaching children they should always feel thankful.
It's about creating space to hold all of our experiences while gently expanding our capacity to notice moments of goodness, love, and connection.
Come as you are.
Together, we'll discover that gratitude isn't just something we practice. It's something we can embody.
